No status updates after a few hours (Chamberlain ML1000ev) #179

Hi all

Recently I have connected a ratgdo board with ESPHome-FW to my Chamberlain ML1000ev Garagedoor opener (“yellow learn button” Security + 2.0). The board I have purchased directly from ratgdo (V2.5) and is powered over USB. WIFI is 3m away from board (-40 dBm).

Connection/Wiring is OK because in general everything works (open/close commands, light, obstruction)

My problem: After a few hours the 5 minutes status reporting stops. This screenshot was taken at 16:30:

5 Minutes Reporting

No more updates and opening the garage door with a remote control also reported no change in status.

"Query status" helped and the status was updated immediately:

Query Status

Do you know what could be the root cause for this? Does the Garagedoor opener somehow have a deep sleep? And "query status" does wake-up?

Thanks & BR Michael

Hi,

I think I see the same behavior as you report here. My setup is a Liftmaster LM100EVS with an original Ratgdo v2.5i flashed with latest esphome-version. Everything working fine (except close-command due to not having obstruction sensors ref here, but toggle works perfectly).

I get correct status for a while, and then it stops updating. Seems like toggle-command from webUI or HA still works, and then status update is back again. A query status command also get things back on track.

Any ideas why this might happen?
